Never Leaving

Chapter; Nineteen

Diluc lifted his face from the mattress, now staring at Scaramouche in concern. Kaeya was now holding a guilty face with beads of sweat gliding down his forehead.

Scaramouche ran and rammed himself into the door, forcing it open. He picked up his belongings on the way out and rushed to the docks.

Running through the busy Inazuma City, he bumped into numerous people, merely picking up his items and dashing back off. He didn't care if he hurt others. He didn't care if he hurt himself.

Right now, his only wish was to flee to Liyue. He wanted to escape the Tsaritsa, escape the rest of the Fatui, escape the people who ridiculed him, and escape Kaeya who joked about Kazuha's death.

And more importantly, Liyue reminded him of Kazuha. It was because he left to go to Liyue for 4 months.

Scaramouche only ran faster when his mind pictured a Cicin Mage strangling Kazuha, Kazuha going limp in her lands while rushing past the place he died.

The boat was already setting sail, so Scaramouche ran, and leapt off of the edge of the docks. Thankfully, he made the jump and he was permitted to have Kazuha's cat on the ship.

Only after a gruelling storm and rough, choppy waves did Scaramouche make it off the boat. "Hey you! The pale one with indigo hair!" A tall woman with dark auburn hair and beautiful Royal Scarlet eyes with light yellow hues called out.

"You remind me of someone.. Oh right! Kazuha told me all about you a few months back. Ah.. What was your name.. Oh! It was Scary Mooch!"

Scaramouche snarled at Beidou, explaining to her that his name wasn't "Scary Mooch". Beidou chuckled at Scaramouche's annoyance.

"You.. Do you know.. About Kazuha.?" Scaramouche brought his face down, a groggy look on both of their faces.

"Whadda'ya mean by that?" Beidou's smile quickly flipped upside down. "Did something happen?"

Scaramouche nodded, telling Beidou what happened a few days ago while sitting at Wanmin Restaurant.

"Oh, hello again Beidou! Who's this you've brought with you?" The young chef of Wanmin Restaurant stood at their table with a notepad.

"He's a guest from Inazuma. We're talking right now, so could we please have a moment and you could come back to us later?" Xiangling nodded before walking off inside the kitchen.

"Did that.. really happen?" Beidou ended the silence quickly, continuing from where they left off.

"Do you think I'm joking? I wouldn't joke about this." Scaramouche glared at her with suspicion in his eyes.

"Well, it's just that.. I've been hanging out with Kazuha for these past few days.."

Hehe, I'll leave you guys to think of what's gonna happen next.

Little update:
School holidays just ended so I'll most likely be too busy to post as often, but I'll try my best to upload every now and then.

And in case you are wondering, I am writing this at the age of 11 so I apologise for any mistakes or if the quality is bad.
